Marketplaces and global platforms already struggle to answer a basic question: who is actually behind this seller, contractor, or account? Fraudulent worker schemes, stolen identities, and deepfaked interviews have turned that question into a boardroom issue, not a compliance checkbox. Now AI agents are starting to act, negotiate, and transact on people's behalf, adding a new identity to verify before the human ones are even settled. This session looks at how platforms are extending trust frameworks to keep pace, and why "know your agent" may be the next mandate after KYC and KYB. Key Takeaways: - The distributed workforce problem: Cross-border contractor and seller networks have made one-time verification obsolete. Real-world fraud, including fake identities and infiltration schemes targeting remote hiring, shows what happens when trust is established once and never revisited. - From one check to continuous trust: What it actually takes operationally to move from onboarding-only verification to lifecycle-based signals, without adding friction that kills conversion or throughput. - The next identity to verify: As AI agents start performing tasks, submitting work, or transacting under a human's authority, how do platforms establish "know your agent" before it becomes a fraud vector instead of after?

Safety by design' means something different in this context, and every decision many organizations make can impact children and teens. This panel session will explore best practices when it comes to digital and physical safety, and discuss the importance of age verification, content moderation, seamless user reporting, and policies aimed to prevent harm to children and teens.

In the AI era, the oldest question in online dating, "is this person real?", has become the hardest to answer. Photos can be generated, voices cloned, conversations scripted. Identity verification has become core infrastructure for trust and safety, yet every check is also a moment of friction in a business built on conversion. Join Veriff and Feeld as we unpack the role of verification in dating: how it builds the trust that drives sign-ups, retention, and real-world connection, and how getting it right turns a moment of friction into a moment of confidence. A look at the measurable impact verification can have on growth, retention, and platform reputation.

Account takeover rarely looks suspicious in a single moment. In this session, we’ll explore how connecting identity, device, behavioral, and transaction signals across the merchant or customer journey can reveal risk that point-in-time checks miss. We’ll unpack how to recognize when “normal” actions form an abnormal pattern, and what organizations can do to detect and stop ATO earlier.

As AI makes it easier than ever to create fake accounts, impersonate users and automate abuse, trust & safety has become a competitive advantage for digital platforms. Join leaders from Prove and Uber for a conversation on how to evolve identity from a one-time onboarding check into a persistent trust layer that helps distinguish real users from bad actors. Attendees will learn how global marketplaces are strengthening user confidence, reducing fraud and creating safer experiences by making verified identity a foundational part of the customer journey - worldwide.
